A spinning reel with 50# braid will actually outcast a conventional, when using most plugs. Unless your conventional is tuned to within an inch of its life, you can't go balls to the wall on a cast with braid--unless you like cutting 10 cent a yard line. If you run less than 25# mono, you take a real chance on a big fish in the Canal, and a spinning reel/50# braid combo will throw a lure farther than a conventional/ 25# or 30# mono combo. For most fishermen, anyway. YMMV if your name is Ron Arra or Big Dave.
